Past weeks hunt with the V3i yielded 2 Barber dimes, 2 Seated dimes 1877 and 1838 O. 5 Indian heads, 6 Buffalos, Silver Ring, Silver Earring, Silver Nickel and a cruddy round ball of lead. All finds were beyond the 7 inch mark. I think I should turn the sensitivity down, as it's too much work to dig the deep ones. lol

I'd kill for digs like that! How'd you get the nickels so shiny?

Those are some very nice digs John. You weren't kidding about that worn 1838-O seated dime. Still, she will fit perfectly in the Seated Dime album. :happydance01:

I used a brass brush on them. It turned them golden color.
